Journey of the “I”
The Cosmic Evolution of Man, as described by Rudolf Steiner
“The cosmic history of consciousness and the evolution of mankind”
About the book
Across a lifetime of books and lectures, Rudolf Steiner set down an account of where the human being comes from — an immense journey through vanished worlds, from Old Saturn to the Earth, and onward to worlds still to come.
Gathered here from across that work and retold in plain, contemporary language, it is offered as a single continuous story: the descent of the “I” into matter, the turning point of its history, and its long return to the spirit.
Sixteen chapters follow every stage in turn. This is not a summary but a rendering — Steiner's cosmology, set down whole, for a reader of today.
